home cheapo has those recycled plastic studs (2x4) that you can run through
a table saw pretty easy. Otherwise the starboard people do make smaller
sizes but you are talking about 2.50 a foot for 2x2's

I've installed a head in a lobster boat. Now I want to enclose it.
What should I use for the 'studs'?
Wood 2x3 tends to warp. Does someone make a vinyl stud about 1.5 x1.5 or
so?
I was going to use a 3/4 birch veneer plywood w/o studs but thought I
could
reduce weight by using a thin plastic veneer over a stud frame.- Hide quoted text -

If you used the gator board you would not need the studs. I take it
that this is a partion and not structual. Gator board comes in
assorted thickness and sizes.
